The Arrested Development Thread

This is definitely the best new comedy on TV (perhaps the best still-running comedy on TV). At least, so I think. I believe Arrested Development (sunday 9/8 central, Fox) provides a fresh and clever brand of comedy that has been much lacking from the one-liners of your average 21st century sitcom.

I caught a couple of episodes when they ran the marathon on New Years. Great show. Almost didn't leave on time that night.

The bidding for unscripted television shows hit new heights Friday when NBC agreed to pay a record $2 million-plus for each episode of a new boxing-themed show created by "reality" TV maestro Mark Burnett.

The deal for "The Contender" is the most ever paid for a first-year unscripted series, raising questions about how the show can be profitable for the General Electric Co.-owned network.

Much of the appeal of earlier unscripted shows was that they cost the networks relatively little, offsetting the rising cost of scripted dramas and comedies. But the fee for "The Contender" is close to what many hourlong network dramas cost...
